Clay has very small pore spaces
the soil that allows water to pass through very slowly is clay
Humus,sand,clay,and water
No, Humus is made from dead organic plants and animals.
Water moves slowly through clay soil because clay particles are very small and close together, creating a tightly packed structure with small pore spaces. This structure restricts the movement of water and makes it difficult for water to flow freely through the soil. Additionally, clay has a high water holding capacity, so water tends to be retained within the clay particles rather than moving down quickly.
Water moves more slowly through clay than through humans because clay has a smaller pore size and higher porosity, which creates more resistance to water flow. In contrast, human tissues have larger pores and lower porosity, allowing water to flow more freely. Additionally, the molecular structure of clay particles can attract and hold onto water molecules, further impeding the flow of water.
Water passes through clay slowly because clay particles are very small and closely packed together, creating a fine network of pores. These pores restrict the flow of water, causing it to move through the clay with difficulty. Additionally, clay is highly cohesive and has a high water-holding capacity, further impeding water movement.
First, the lightest soil component is clay. The, there's sand then humus then finally gravel.

Sand. The ability of water to flow through a soil is referred to as the soil's permeability (A) Clay (B) Loam (C) Sand (D) Silt (E) Humu
yes
clay
Because the pores, or air spaces, between particles are much smaller in clay than in silt, loam, or sand. The water simply can't get through very quickly.
